Politico is currently running a story entitled "Obama's Debt Expert Yells at Kids."  Truth is, Obama's debt expert Alan Simpson wasn't yelling at kids, but at their grandparents who act like they could care less about the well-being of future generations when it comes to restoring fiscal sanity to the entitlement system.  Of course, Simpson empathetically explained, it's hard to care much about these disrespectful saggy-pants youngsters who listen to 'enema man' and 'snoopy snoopy poop dog.'

Sounds like somebody's had a colostomy.

Doesn't Sen. Simpson know that Chrysler is featuring Enema Man in its new commercials?  Snoopy Snoopy Poop Dog only gets to pitch Pepsi Max.

You see, I never know with this COC thing. I thought Simpson's comment was funny but not COC compliant, and that his overall comments were more cognizant of the budget crisis than anyone else I've heard representing Obama. Now that I understand what we are really after...

Oh, how uncool! Simpson is an old geezer and he doesn't know Snoop Dogg or M&M! And he's YELLING at kids! What a disgrace!

Gee, I'm so glad Politico is out there keeping us all informed...

I think that's a pretty accurate description of those two so-called rap "artists".

There's a PhotoShop there that A) is disrespectful to the late Charles Schulz and B) way COC non-compliant. But like a good Hitchcock scene, sometimes you just don't have to show it.

Given that Snoop Dogg and Eminem are listened to by Generation X, as much as those "kids" today, it seems that Simpson is a little out of touch with modern pop culture.

Thanks for making that the headline. I keep looking at it to get a laugh. I don't even need to see the video. Too funny.

It's obvious that Simpson knows who Eminem and Snoop Dog are.  He's just doing the same comic thing some of us do when we pretend not to know who Justin Bieber is.

Snoopy Snoopy Poop Dog? I heard he's doing a remake of this song.

I'm sorry. My headline is marginally non-CoC compliant.  But it's been cracking me up for the past hour.

But very tasteful and absolutely required by the plot.  Rob would approve.
